[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]pp, BASIS has pushed out students taking advanced math, going to mastery defense, taking AP classes and doing everything right.

I wonder if you would feel the same way  if your smart hard working kid, getting mostly "A"s suddenly received a "D" or "F" on the comps, bringing his GPA way down. If you are in middle school, you may not really care. But what if they did this in high school? Wouldn't you go and ask for an explanation?  And how would you got totally ignored by administration?

This is not a heresay. It's the truth about BASIS. There are great students but there are also mediocre ones who are getting very good grades by different ways -- especially in high school. [/quote]

This doesn't ring true to me. BASIS high school students don't take comprehensive exams (except if they are taking Alg 2 in high school).

The comps are not easy and count for 50% of your child's final grade for the year. So yes, they can and do affect GPAs both for better and worse. [/quote]
